Drivers License Testing

Just the other day, we had a terrible tragedy here in Raleigh. A 6 year old girl getting off a school bus was struck and killed by an 83 year-old driver in an SUV that passed the bus, who claimed that the stop signals were not on, though about a dozen or so adult witnesses say the stop signals were all on. This has ignited a debate locally over whether the state should take another look at the drivers license laws and possibly start requiring safety tests on a yearly basis to drivers over a certain. IMO, I think that we should give this a look and I would certainly support support yearly tests over a certain age. Statistically, this age group has more accidents than even teens.
